yum indeed mj glad you can enjoy your food again

Dooby - I didn't realise you are moving too!

Dh hasn't told his boss yet, as he discovered a break in yesterday morning - si it didn't seem like a good time, and then helpfully went out, and still wasn't back at 10 pm!

mammyjo · 06/07/2008 10:58

Shame your dh couldn't tell his boss, but definitely not good timing! Hope you now have a vomit free house

Right, must get my arse into gear and go to the shop or there will be no choc cheesecake to be had! Haven't even had a shower today yet. Dh let me sleep in until 9am - fab!!

Back to reality tomorrow with the school run. I haven't been doing it as I couldn't drive, so my parents have been helping me out. Off work for another fortnight as I was told to take a month off following surgery, then hopefully everything will start to get back to normal around here. Very very just to be feeling so much better!

Glad you're feeling happy mammyjo - it's fantastic!

CaptainDippy · 06/07/2008 13:09

Afternoon ladies

mammyjo · 06/07/2008 13:25

Hello SPB and CD How is your day?

I have made the cheesecake and it is now in the oven. I have never made it before so I am crossing my fingers that it turns out ok!!

geordieminx · 06/07/2008 13:46

Hey ladies

MJ Cheese cake sounds lovely!!!

C went to bed at 6.5 last night... unfortunately it meant he was up at 5.10 this morning....and it was my turn to get up with him.. Is 14 months too young to send downstairs to make his own breakfast and watch tv????

On the plus side, I had tonights dinner (lamb shepherds pie) made my 6.30, and have cheese scones cooling down as we speak. I am a domestic goddess!

Really fed up of the crap weather at the moment, its cold and rainy and miserable - it wouldnt be so bad if it was February or October but its JULY ffs!!!

Rant over

SPB - Did you make it to the demon barbers hairdressers?

Not yet, think I will take him next time I go, before the wedding in August.
Have just cleaned the bathroom but can't be bothered to clean the kitchen or do anything useful

Evening all

We're home, left at 11am
Rain on M3/M25 meant the usual traffic chaos and I had to stop a couple of times for a sleep. Of course, I'm blaming the narcolepsy for that and not the events of last night

Well, we went out at 10pm, leaving the men at home with the children. We went to the same bar that we went to last time I got trolleyed tipsy on cocktails and sambuca with Pisha and navy boys and did the same again (only this time it was marines, they don't like it if you call them navy boys!). I only had 3 cocktails and 2 shots of sambuca this time though, so was fairly sober by the time we went home. I then stayed up most of the night and went to bed when M woke up this morning .

Still, you've gotta enjoy yourself when you're young, which, by the way, Pisha isn't, according to a man that was chatting me up last night . He was shocked that I was as old as I am and guessed her at 32 when she's only 29

I'm going to house-sit for them in 2 weeks, guess where I'm going on the saturday night

mammyjo · 06/07/2008 18:37

32 is not old I am extremely offended

PillockOfTheCommunity · 06/07/2008 18:56

It is when you get told you look 21

oooggs · 06/07/2008 19:13

32 is very young mammyjo

twinkle is also pregnant

glad you had a fab time ellie

I may be going on a meet up tomorrow

Pinions · 06/07/2008 19:21

Hi ladies. Hope all the ladies and families are well.

Off to continue discussion with Xenia .

CaptainDippy · 06/07/2008 19:21

How was the cheesecake MJ!!?

Sounds like a top weekend POTC & Pisha Is "top" a really fogey expression now!!!?

Going out for a drink with my DH now

PillockOfTheCommunity · 06/07/2008 19:23

oh dear, Pinions and Xenia, wouldn't like to take bets on the outcome of that 'discussion'

PillockOfTheCommunity · 06/07/2008 19:36

I am finding this thread hilarious!

NorthernLurker · 06/07/2008 19:37

Hi all

Pretty good weekend here. Went and ordered a new dining room table and chairs yesterday My mum and dad gave us some cash when we moved so that's what we're spending it on. Found a lovely one 1/2 price in the sales Nothing else to report really - back to work tomorrow but just done application for another job so here's hoping

oooggs · 06/07/2008 20:12

can anyone work this out?

There are 7 girls in a bus.
Each girl has 7 backpacks.
In each backpack, there are 7 big cats.
For every big cat, there are 7 little cats.

Question: How many legs are there in the bus?

Sexonlegs · 06/07/2008 20:13

Evening all.

MJ, you sound on top of the world my love; fabulous! How was the cheesecake; sounded lovely. Definitely want to meet up during that week if you are around. I'll email you or fb you and we can arrange it all.

NL, really hope you have a better week at work. Good luck with the application for the new job.

Pisha/POTC, sounds like you had a fab time I really fancy a night out on the pull piss

Hi SPB, Elkie, Oooggs and all you other lovely ladies. Just rushing this post before I dish up dinner for dh and me. Back later. x

Sexonlegs · 06/07/2008 20:16

Is it 70 Oooggs?

oooggs · 06/07/2008 20:18

no its not 70

I don't know thae answer - the correct answer unlocks a spreadsheet - I am frustrated

Eddas · 06/07/2008 20:18

238 ?

oooggs · 06/07/2008 20:23

nope eddas

I keep getting 1582 and it doesn't work

my theory

7 girls = 14 legs

in each rucksack 7 big cats and 49 little ones 7+49x4=224

49 rucksacks @ 224 each = 10976 + 14 =10990

it worked woo hoo

writing it down worked

7 GIRLS, 49 BACKPACKS 7 BIG CATS IN EACH OF THE 49 BACKPACKS

Girls - 7 = 14 legs

49 Bags = 49 * 7 Big Cats = 343 Cats =
1372 legs

little cats - 343 big cats * 7 little cats = 2401 little cats = 9604 legs

10990 legs
